The Phase One fixtures for the JD Cymru Premier campaign will be announced at 10am on Thursday 10 July, ahead of the opening weekend of the season on 8-10 August. 

While this JD Cymru Premier fixture release date is comparatively later than previous years, clubs expressed a desire to wait for the English Football League fixture lists to be released (on Thursday 26 June) before the Phase One schedule is determined, in order to avoid as many local fixture clashes as possible. 

The Nathaniel MG Cup Round One and Round Two draws will be broadcast at 8pm on Wednesday 25 June. Full details will be confirmed in due course.
